Remember Gary Russell Jr only landing

[Resilient]

Rounds 1-3 was clear Lara rounds, agree?
Rounds 10 & 11 was too, agree?
Forget the swing rounds and tell me how most of these scorecards I am seeing are even possible when one fighter won AT LEAST 5 clear cut rounds.

You might think each elbow punch and a swipe of thin air overrules 3 or 4 clean headshots, I assure you it doesn't.

Lara won this fight man.

No.

Round 2 was Canelo.

[ShoulderRoll]

Terrible comparison. Do you really think that Lara was as impressive offensively as Lomachenko?

[dan_cov]

No.

Round 2 was Canelo.

Exactly why you're a troll on a forum and not a judge.

Did he even land 2 punches that round? lol

All Lara did was a good one two, another 3 punch combo that was blocked but Paulette claimed it landed... Canelo landed a good straight down the pipe and ripped his body up, plus pressed the whole round

Yes, if we ignore everything else and just focus on the numbers.

But if we look at the subjective aesthetics of both fights, it's comparing apples to oranges. Lara didn't land anything remotely close to as effective as Lama did to Russel.

Sarcasm bro

I agreed with you. This fight and Lomo vs GRJ were nothing a like

[sparkman0811]

83 punches over 12 rounds and Lomachenkos defense was masterful and Russell was a disgrace landing so few shots?

That is right he was mocked over his pathetic accuracy and how he seemingly expected to win a fight.

Forward on a few weeks later CANelo lands 94 over 12 rounds, most of which was actually on the elbows. He was limited to landing 20% over all and still he won!

Unbelievable.

Oh Lara didn't throw enough, Canelo threw less than 30 more!

Floyd vs Maidana, Lara vs Canelo. I just don't understand why your scoring criteria's constantly change.

I gave Lara 1,2,3,10, and 12. I can't see how you can give Lara any other rounds. How, on what basis? It sure as hell wasn't activity, because there were rounds where he pretty much didn't do ****. Like others here have said, it was frustrating to watch Lara pretty much throw the fight away. He can only blame himself for the loss. This isn't the amateurs were you can win a fight by landing 9 or 10 total punches. He needs to understand this. Also, what's with this moving 10-15 ft away from your opponent and calling this "boxing," at least stay within punching range. I'm sorry, but tonight Lara ****ing ran.

As far as the Russell Jr. comparison, you are reaching here. Russell Jr. threw a lot but wasn't close to reaching his target, he was shadow boxing. Lomanchenko beat the **** out of him and was good defensively and offensively. Lara made Canelo miss, but hardly had any offense. Plus, when Canelo landed he had the harder and more effective damaging punches, plus great body work. If Lara didn't take ****ing rounds off, the fight would of been his. But, he did, so the right man won.

Russell showed he wasn't ready or not good enough for the world class level..

Both Lara and canelo have proven they are world class, regardless of who u thought won..

[brickcityboxing]

Trolls are out in full force tonight ... No biggie, they know what they saw.
This isn't the first time Lara has been robbed either so it's business as usual. Goldenboy got to hold on to their golden goose for a little while longer but the blueprint has been set and there aren't enough bums out there to keep the ginger winning...

[mrpain81]

This fight looked nothing like Loma vs. Russell but yeah lets try to make a bullshit comparison.

[Puncho]

Out of Lomachenko, Canelo, Lara and Russel Jr., none are even remotely alike as fighters nor were the fights.
